It didn't benefit from the foolish speculators that inflated the bubble and sold off.
It did. A lot of the coverage of Bitcoin mentioned the huge run up in price. It got a lot more coverage because of the get-rich-quick angle.
I'm both a speculator and a user. Bitcoin benefits from both speculators and users.

nope. im a speculator.
Well the active nodes have maintained the volumes, doesn't that warrant some analysis?
I dunno, sounds like you are speculating to me. 
Is it fair to say that because the bitcoin exchanges use universal bitcoin wallets to enable instant transactions between accounts, the nodes on the network should be biased towards bitcoin users which do not hold speculative positions on exchange accounts?
Does this mean the genuine users of bitcoin have stayed which is a good sign for bitcoin? Or is this a flawed assessment?
